Revival of Female Groups and Comedy Office? What Johnny’s new company will start from now on

The “resurgence” of female talent!

One of the fantasies is even the possibility of belonging to a female talent.

I am sure there are many people who know that there was a time when female talents were affiliated with the company, but if female talents were to be born again, it would surely attract a great deal of attention (laughs).

For example, the Three Yankees, a trio of girls who formed in conjunction with a women’s baseball program broadcast on Fuji Television in 1978 and released the single “The Baseball” (the baseball-related part is typical of the old Johnny’s), debuted in 1984, (The baseball-related part is typical of the old Johnny’s), and the Orange Sisters (this group is the last female talent to date), a three-member group that debuted in 1984.

Incidentally, the first female talent from the former Johnny’s office was Sumiyo Iino, who represented Japan in the Miss Universe pageant in 1968. The first female talent from the former Johnny’s office was Sumiyo Iino, who represented Japan in the Miss Universe pageant in 1968, and Jun Shimada, who represented Japan in Miss Universe in 1970. VIP is a five-member mixed gender group that includes former members of “JOHNNYS’ Junior Special,” and Keiko Julie Fujishima, who also played a student in “3 Years B Class Kinpachi Sensei. Surprisingly (?) Female Johnny’s existed in the past.

New Generation!” was announced as the successor to “The Shonen Club,” which had been broadcast on NHKBS. . So far, Shonen Club has only featured Johnny’s Jr. and other Johnny’s talents (except for guest performers), but NHK has announced that the program will also feature female idols and artists.

NHK has announced that female idols and artists will also appear on the program, and it may even send a new female idol group of its own origin to this female idol slot.

When NHK announced “New Generation! was announced, many fans were concerned about performing with female idols, but will the presence of women in the company’s own talent, even though it once existed, make fans even more concerned?

Possibility of “e-sports,” “YouTube,” and “comedian” affiliations?

The revival of female talent would be quite a drastic change, but other possibilities are also possible.

Ikuto Kawai of A.B.C-Z has announced that he will leave the group in December to pursue his career as an MC and other individual talent.

There have been former Johnny’s such as Shunsuke Kazama and Toma Ikuta who specialized in acting, but I don’t think there have been any individual Johnny‘s who have specialized in acting or MCing.

Furthermore, just as Hey! Say! JUMP’s Ryosuke Yamada has pioneered a new path as a game distributor, it is not impossible that e-sports, YouTube, and other affiliations, or even virtual idols and Vtubers from the new company will make their debut.

It is also conceivable that the company will actively expand the nationalities of its members in preparation for global expansion.

Business alliances and dual appointments are also possible.

For example, “For the Kansai Johnny’s Jr. regular program ‘Maido! Journey” (BS Fuji), a regular program of Kansai Johnny’s Jr.

Kansai Jr. also has strong ties to Shochiku, including performances at the Shochikuza Theater and movie distribution. It would be interesting if, for example, the new company were to take on a full-fledged comedy career and make the most of its skills in a dual role with Shochiku Entertainments.

The fantasies are endless, but how far will the new company, STARTO ENTERTAINMENT, be able to take its image to a whole new level? We will continue to keep an eye on it.
